The Killka range stands out for its fruitiness and younger style. The grapes from the El Oasis vineyard grow at an altitude of 1150 and 1200 meters. After fermentation in steel tanks, the wine was left to mature in French and American oak barrels for 12 months.
Killka -an Andean word whose meaning is "entrance door"- is the cultural and gastronomic center of Bodegas Salentein. Killka wines open the doors to the world of enjoyment in all its senses: culinary expression, art, music, landscapes and good company. "Our Killka line of red wines is made with grapes from Finca "El Oasis" which is located in one of the highest regions of the Uco Valley, at an altitude of between 1,050 and 1,200 meters above sea level, a place with ideal conditions where superior quality grapes are obtained, with good natural acidity and concentration in cool weather conditions. Harvesting is done mechanically, taking advantage of the low nighttime temperatures due to the wide temperature range and the altitude where our vineyards are located. This allows us to receive fresh grapes and reduce energy consumption, contributing to sustainability", Carlos Bauzá, winemaker of the Killka line of Bodegas Salentein.
